  NFL | Todd Gurley unlikely to play again    Fri Oct 21, 08:15 PM

Free-agent RB Todd Gurley (Falcons) said he has not officially retired but likely will not play in the NFL again.

Footballguys view: Gurley hasn't played since 2020, so it's been apparent that his playing days are done. Last playing with the Falcons, Gurley did not look like his former self. We'll always remember Gurley for his superstar performance with the Rams that made him a fantasy favorite for years. Even though it's not yet official, this is Gurley admitting he's retired.

  NFL | Todd Gurley not ruling out return    Mon May 23, 12:29 PM

Free-agent RB Todd Gurley isn't ruling out a return to the NFL after not playing in 2021. 'If I want to try to play again, I can try to pursue that. Or if I don't, I can just relax and chill at the house and spend a lot more time with my family because that's what it's all about at the end of the day. And then at the end of the day, still becoming a businessman and still venturing off in that next phase of my life.'

Footballguys view: We'll see what the future holds for Gurley, but apparently he's bought into the Fan Controlled Football League. We think his playing days are done, but never say never with some of these guys.

  Ravens | Todd Gurley not an option for Ravens    Mon Aug 30, 12:35 PM

Free-agent RB Todd Gurley (Falcons) is not an option for the Baltimore Ravens, who like their running back depth, as of Monday, Aug. 30.

Footballguys view: Gurley is going to have to keep waiting for an opportunity in 2021. Perhaps after Week 1, when veteran addition's salaries are not fully guaranteed, will get a team more interested in Gurley. The Ravens have Gus Edwards as their top back. Behind Edwards, watch Justice Hill get some change-of-pace and receiving work out of the backfield. Ty'Son Williams is worth monitoring in dynasty formats as well.

  Lions | Todd Gurley would be No. 3 RB    Sun Jun 20, 05:25 PM

Free-agent RB Todd Gurley (Falcons) would be the No. 3 running back if he signs with the Detroit Lions behind RBs D'Andre Swift and Jamaal Williams, according to the Detroit Free Press' Dave Birkett

Footballguys view: In other news, water is wet. Gurley is no longer the same player he used to be, so working as a third-string back is what he'd be on most any team that signs him. The Lions worked him out but did not sign him. The Ravens have also taken a look at the veteran back. We should see him signed in training camp to a new team, perhaps the Lions who have Swift as their top runner and Williams as an "A" back as well.

  Ravens | No offer for Todd Gurley    Thu Jun 10, 04:34 PM

Updating a previous report, free-agent RB Todd Gurley (Falcons) had a positive meeting with the Baltimore Ravens Thursday, June 10, but left without a contract offer, according to a source.

Footballguys view: Just like with the Lions at the end of May, Gurley gets to workout but he gets no contract offer. Teams are likely just updating their emergency lists. Gurley is getting some attention but may not find a new home until training camp. There's a chance he doesn't get a new team until the start of the regular season too. He's not the player he used to be but he's not yet done playing in the NFL.

  Ravens | Todd Gurley visiting Ravens    Thu Jun 10, 08:01 AM

Free-agent RB Todd Gurley (Falcons) is visiting the Baltimore Ravens Thursday, June 10.

Footballguys view: Gurley had a visit with the Lions near the end of May but left without a contract. They were likely just updating their emergency list. Perhaps the Ravens will feel differently and sign the veteran back. If signed, Gurley would give them veteran depth behind J.K. Dobbins and Gus Edwards.

  Lions | No timetable on adding Todd Gurley    Thu Jun 3, 12:06 PM

Free agent RB Todd Gurley (Falcons) remains of interest to the Detroit Lions after visiting with the team May 27, but head coach Dan Campbell said Thursday, June 3, that there's no deadline to sign him. 'But I would say this: Just because we have interest in him, that does not affect our feeling and our thoughts on both (RBs D'Andre) Swift and Jamaal (Williams),' Campbell said.

Footballguys view: The Lions are just updating their emergency list with this interest in Gurley. He's not the same back he used to be but could give some team veteran depth. The Lions have Swift as their top back and Williams is capable of playing on three downs and getting a large role if called upon. There's not many touches there for Gurley if everybody's healthy in the Lions backfield.

  Lions | D'Andre Swift open to Todd Gurley addition    Mon May 31, 01:52 PM

Detroit Lions RB D'Andre Swift said he would be fine with the Lions signing free-agent RB Todd Gurley (Falcons) because Gurley would bring experience and knowledge to the team.

Footballguys view: Swift's fantasy value is already complicated because of the addition of "A-back" Jamaal Williams in free agency. He should get a lot of volume in a run-heavy Lions offense, and projecting him for around 1,000 yards rushing makes sense. Adding Gurley to the room would further complicate things and potentially take some work away from him. Swift has a current ADP of RB13 (2.10) in 12-team PPR leagues.

  Lions | Todd Gurley visiting Detroit    Thu May 27, 01:04 PM

Free agent RB Todd Gurley is in Detroit on Thursday, May 27, to visit with the Lions, per a source.

Footballguys view: Gurley is not the same player he used to be, but he can work well as a veteran backup for some team out there. The Lions have D'Andre Swift as their starter, but they went out in free agency and added Jamaal Williams and in the draft they added Jermar Jefferson. Gurley would cramp the room if added, so the Lions might just be updating their emergency list with this workout.

  NFL | Potential landing spots for Todd Gurley?    Mon Apr 12, 10:48 PM

Free-agent RB Todd Gurley (Falcons) could be of interest to the New York Jets, San Francisco 49ers or Kansas City Chiefs, in the opinion of James Fragoza of Pro Football Network.

Footballguys view: Gurley is not the player he used to be but he's still got value to a team in search of veteran depth at the position. The interest is there but there may not be a rush to sign him.

  Falcons | Ito Smith leading Atlanta's backfield for now    Mon Dec 21, 03:19 PM

Atlanta Falcons RB Ito Smith is the lead runner 'right now,' according to interim head coach Raheem Morris, who added Todd Gurley's role has changed in recent weeks.

Footballguys view: Gurley has not looked like himself for quite some time. The Falcons now turn the backfield over to Smith, although Gurley will get some time here and there. Smith has an opportunity to prove himself as the feature back for the Falcons over the final two games of the season. We think he's got plenty of flex appeal for Fantasy GMs in the championship rounds.

  Falcons | Todd Gurley purposely limited in Week 14    Mon Dec 7, 03:13 PM

Atlanta Falcons RB Todd Gurley (knee) went into Week 13 against the New Orleans Saints 'comfortable' with being used as a situational runner and pass protector due to his knee injury. Interim head coach Raheem Morris also expects that Gurley will have 'a bigger role' in Week 14 against the Los Angeles Chargers.

Footballguys view: Gurley just doesn't look like his old self on the football field. Limiting his role certainly limits his fantasy potential, so if you shut him down we don't blame you. The Falcons will use Gurley, Ito Smith and Brian Hill in a three-headed RBBC (most likely) for the rest of the year.

Atlanta Falcons RB Todd Gurley (knee) was not seen with the team's other running backs during practice Thursday, Dec. 3. One team beat reporter, though, theorized that it could just be a rest day for Gurley.

Footballguys view: We'll see what Gurley can do on Friday. Fantasy GMs are going to the waiver wire and adding Ito Smith, especially because Brian Hill disappoints with more work. Smith got more touches than Hill last week and may have passed him on the depth chart.

  Falcons | Atlanta unleashing Todd Gurley     Tue Oct 27, 10:50 PM

Atlanta Falcons RB Todd Gurley's 122 rush attempts rank second in the NFL, and he has logged at least 14 carries in all seven games.

Footballguys view: Gurley might not quite be the player he used to be but his usage is keeping his fantasy value high. Right now (standard-scoring) Gurley is the no.6 running back in fantasy leagues. That falls just a bit to the no.8 position in PPR leagues. Either way, Gurley is a RB1 for Fantasy GMs out there.
